Wine tasting notes
Shimmering pale salmon-pink colour with a fine mousse and a bouquet of fresh raspberries, redcurrants and peaches. The red berries and peach come through on the palate with a touch of cassis, rounding off with a lingering crisp, fruity finish. A great alternative to a rosé champagne!
Food matching
A fun, cheaper alternative to Champagne for a party or an aperitif, this will take on many of the same foods that good, non-vintage Champagne can take on. Try this with all kinds of fish and seafood, including smoked and raw, and don't be afraid to try it with all kinds of spicy food, such as Indian, Chinese and Thai. Because of its good, clean acidity, it can also take on richer, cheese dishes and dishes containing cream, and Michel Roux suggests deep-fried almond-coated Camembert.
Expert reviews
This is a soft, off-dry wine with attractive red fruit and a smooth, rounded texture. Acidity balances to give a crisp, fruity aftertaste. Drink now.
